“Flash Fiction, Flash Bangs” by Andy Underwood is a nice change of pace from the usual short story or chapbook. This hundred-page book of hundred-word stories is a pleasant read. What especially caught my attention was the fact that every one of the stories in the book actually did contain a hundred words, no more, no less.

Now you can say what you want about that but I assure you, from a writer’s point of view, that’s not an easy task. Ten or twenty a good writer might do but to do a hundred stories with exactly a hundred words and still make the story worth reading, takes talent, a talent that Andy clearly exhibits in the variety of stories he presents.

“Flash Fiction, Flash Bangs” Flash Fiction, Flash Bangs contains brief stories that will keep the reader entertained on a plane, bus or train.
